Bitcoin is now less than 20 days from its fourth halving event. According to OkLink, the current countdown to the Bitcoin halving event is 18 days, with an expected date of April 20. The remaining blocks for this event total 2602.

MicroStrategy, led by Saylor, is a major player in the Bitcoin industry and owns a significant portion of the cryptocurrency. Despite market fluctuations, Saylor's unwavering belief in Bitcoin remains notable.
